Straight answers
What we buy, and what we don’t.
Published so you don’t waste an afternoon finding out on a phone call. If your property falls outside this, we’ll usually still know someone worth calling.
We buy
- Single family and multi‑family, up to about $1.2M
- Houses needing major work, including fire and water damage
- Inherited and probate property
- Pre‑foreclosure, Notice of Default, liens and title problems
- Tenant‑occupied rentals, mid‑lease and Section 8
- Houses still full of contents
- Divorce, relocation and estate situations
We don’t buy
- Anything under $100,000
- Houses with less than about 50% equity
- Subject‑to deals with no equity
- Vacant land or lots
- Commercial buildings
- Timeshares
- Anything where we can’t clear title for you
That last one matters more than it sounds. If the title can’t be cleared, you can’t actually sell the house to anybody, and a buyer who tells you otherwise is setting up a problem for later.
Condition is not a problem
“As‑is” means what it says.
Structural and systems
Foundation movement, roof at end of life, failed plumbing or electrical, an HVAC that hasn’t run in years.
Damage
Fire, water, mould, storm damage, or a house that’s simply sat empty for a long time.
Contents
Full garages, full rooms, a lifetime of belongings. Take what matters to you and leave the rest.
Permits
Unpermitted additions, converted garages, work a previous owner did over a weekend in 1988.
Occupancy
Tenants who are staying, tenants who won’t leave, family members living there, or squatters.
Paperwork
Probate, liens, back taxes, a Notice of Default, or heirs who don’t entirely agree with each other.
